At This Point I’m Half-convinced That There Will Be No Release Date For Good Omens; Amazon Will Simply

It’s too late, Amazon, you’ve waited too long to release Good Omens. I’m off to the Shire to hang out with the hobbits and I don’t know when I’ll be back.

Favorite Alec keels over moment is in the church with Paul in “November Fog”, mainly because I still love your Alec and Paul dynamic and their conversations. That, and/or the moment when Alec finds out Daisy has a boyfriend and he passes out because of the shock because I find it honestly amusing..

A Game...

Okay, so this proves without a doubt one should not give me a laptop while I’m sick. But I’m using my feverish, addled brain as an excuse to finally go through with this little game that I’ve been joking about with several people… and also because I’ve reached 250 followers and people do stuff when that happens (I sometimes feel like I’m the tumblr socially awkward version of Alec Hardy when it comes to these things).

As some of you may know, I have an unhealthy propensity for having poor Alec Hardy pass out in all kinds of circumstances… now this is your opportunity to vote for your favorite “Alec Hardy Keels Over” scene in any of my fics (see I don’t have the kissing thing going on so I can’t do that). I know this is a slightly morbid game, but I have to admit I do wonder sometimes. And when I did this with a few people, I actually was surprised (and I realize I might not even remember all the times it happens - erm… *blushes with embarrassment*).

Anyway, is there a prize? Well, it’s not really a competition, but if you can come up with a scene that I sort of forgot about, I’ll take a prompt (and if not you can leave prompts as well). I’ll start you off with a three of my favorite ones and then you can either add or pick the same (you have two votes) (warning this may contain SPOILERS)

Only the Master would kill a future self, and only both versions of the Master would laugh about it.

On another note, I freaking ADORE Missy.

Just saw a teenager dressed up as a pirate on a bycicle blaring Monster Mash as he was cycling through a parking lot. Is it Halloween? I would say so.

*finds angsty fic*

*whines every 5 minutes*

*screams intensely*

*leaps out of window whilst holding laptop*

*rolls in blood and tears*

*dies*

that was really good i’m gonna read it again 

The thing I'm most grateful about the DW franchise for is that it has taught me how to FINALLY spell 'twelfth' correctly.

My two year old niece has a cat named Jed, and now all cats she sees she calls 'Jeddies'.

Ya’ll, I happened across the classical piece ‘Devil’s Trill Sonata’ by Tartini for the first time (don’t know how I didn’t know about it before), and I found THIS GEM in the comments:

I’m FUCKING DYING send help.

A thought: Good Omens, A Series of Unfortunate Events, and Welcome to Night Vale each give off distinct, yet related energies.

My favorite ladies: Fandom edition

1) Mara Jade Skywalker. I will admit it: I LOVE Star Wars, and I’ve loved it since I was four. As an eleven year old I got into the Expanded Universe, and I immediately loved Mara. She’s brave, intelligent, independent, she kicks ass like no other, and she’s more than just a pretty face. Raised as a child by Emperor Palpatine to be one of his Hands (top assassins), she was entirely obedient to him to the point of trying to kill Luke Skywalker when he commanded her to; until, of course, she started to realize that Palpatine was nothing but a manipulative bastard, and then she ended up marrying said Skywalker later on down the road. (Luke and Mara are absolutely amazing together, and they’ve been one of my OTPs for over a decade now.)

2) Martha Jones. Seriously, though, I think the question to ask is what is there not to love about Doctor Martha Jones? She’s treated less-than-stellar by the Tenth Doctor, yes, but she adapts to this crazy life of time-travel so well (too well maybe), not to mention that she helps him out of the fire several times throughout her run. Have people really already forgotten the fact that Martha is the Woman Who Walked the Earth, stayed alive an entire year avoiding the Master’s efforts to capture her, and was the entire reason why the Doctor’s plan to end the Year That Never Was worked? (Also, she’s the only modern-day companion to have voluntarily left the Doctor, which I admire A LOT.)

3) Mary Watson. I seem to have a thing for the lesser-liked ladies in fandoms. Granted, I’m not normally a Johnlock shipper by any means, so I never had to feel like my favorite pairing was being threatened; but Mary was so much more than what she appeared on the surface. She’s multifaceted, she’s secretive, and I wouldn’t even necessarily label her as a Good Person-- but she is Good where it counts, she’s genuinely kind and caring to others, she tries her best to protect John and Rosie, and she and Sherlock have this amazing understanding of each other which I find absolutely brilliant.

4) Peggy Carter. Her name alone conveys how much of a BAMF Peggy is. ‘Nuff said.

(Seriously, though, I’ll have to do a full-depth analysis on Peggy at a later date, because usually all I can do when I think of her is incoherently flail, and I’ll need more than a paragraph to explain why I love her so much.)

5) Ellie Miller. I had a hard time deciding who I was going to put down on this list, Ellie or Beth Latimer. I decided on Ellie because I’ve made it no secret Beth is my absolute favorite character in Broadchurch, and I’ve talked about her a lot on previous posts. So here’s Ellie, the Detective Sergeant of Broadchurch who is the one who helped close three major cases, loves her sons more than chocolate, builds her life back up after it comes to pieces around her, and gives some truly amazing tellings-off when she needs to. And she threatens to piss in a cup and throw it at Hardy when he’s being particularly difficult, and if that isn’t legendary I don’t know what is. She’s all-around brilliant, and honestly one of the main reasons why the tv show works as well as it does.

These are just a few of my favorites, but this list is already a bit long, so part 2 is going to have to come later.
